We are extremely excited to begin instructing and engaging with you and your children! We have been hard at work throughout the summer planning for different scenarios, so we are confident we will be providing a rigorous and engaging curriculum for your child. While we’d love to have your children at Willow Brook in person and have them enjoy learning in the way they are most familiar with, we know that health and safety must come first. We appreciate your patience as we work to ensure the best possible start to our new school year.
